[Verse 1]
G     C   G         D7  G
[tab]                     D
and did my Sovereign die!

      G  D Em   G    C G    D
Would he devote that sacred head

G     C  G      D7 G
for such a worm as I!
[Verse 2]
G      C   G             D7  G
Was it for crimes that I had done

                    D
he groaned upon the tree!

 G  D   Em  G  C     G D
Amazing pit-y! Grace unknown!

G     C  G      D G
And love beyond degree!
[Verse 3]
G          C   G          D7   G
Well might the sun in darkness hide,

                     D
and shut his glories in,

     G       D   Em   G C  G   D
when Christ, the mighty Maker, died

G     C G       D7     G
for man the creature's sin.
[Verse 4]
G          C G            D7  G
Thus might I hide my blushing face

                       D
while his dear cross appears;

   G     D  Em    G  C    G  D
dissolve my heart in thankfulness,

G     C  G         D7 G
and melt mine eyes in tears.
[Verse 5]
G         C  G               D7 G
But drops of grief can ne'er re-pay

                   D
The debt of love I owe;

      G     D Em   G C    G D
here, Lord, I give myself a-way,

G     C  G      D7  G
'tis all that I can do.
